Roasted Butternut Squash-Coconut Soup

Wednesday was my birthday and I got a lot phone calls and messages from my friends and family….It is wonderful to know that people care about you. Thank you all for being there for me whenever I need to talk.

I was chatting with one of my good friends and because another year has past, we started to talk about things we want to do before we die! It was fun talking about all those things with her. At the risk of sounding morbid, I want to share some of them with you and I would love to know what’s on your bucket list.

Things I must do before I “kick the bucket”:

Be able to speak perfect English, so American people can understand what I say the first time:-)
Go to Italy, England, Spain, and France.
Visit every department (State) in Colombia.
Write a cookbook.
Own an apartment in Medellin-Colombia for vacation.
Get back to a size 0 jeans
Take a photography course and take amazing pictures.

Now let me share with you this wonderful Butternut Squash-Coconut Soup I made a week ago that we loved.

hmmm write the cookbook and fit into the jeans? I think its an either or! But I would surely buy your cookbook! My husband and I love your recipes!

And the accent? As long as the people who love you understand it! (I have a Colombian husband and I know his accent is really strange to most people! I am used to it…maybe some words, but eh, its okay! its part of your heritage!)

The soup looks great! But getting my husband to eat something that is vegetable based is impossible! Maybe for a girls night in!

Happy belated birthday to you. Wow – size “0” jeans – I am trying to get back to a size “10.” Now the soup – the squash soup – yes on all accounts. Noting it, bookmarking it and celebrating it for our chilly days when squash is so abundant.

Erica – I hope your birthday was a wonderful one! I’d like to do a lot of traveling too, many of the same places you’d like to visit. I’d also like to get a job doing something with food, not sure what yet. I have never been a size zero, but I would like to get back to a size 6 or even an 8.

Your soup is beautiful with the bacon garnish on top. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family here in the states.

I made this soup. Was it me or did it make A LOT of soup? I think about 15 cups!! Well, my boyfriend helped me eat some of it this weekend. I like the bacon with it, and I added a dollop of sour cream which hit the spot. At first, I wasn’t sure but with that addition, it was a hit worth making again.

Making this soup tonight! So excited to try this one out. I am obsssesed with your pea soup. I added kale, spinach and broccoli and my son loves it! Thanks for sharing. Please post more of your crema soups!
